Povidone Iodine Raw Material Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- PVP Iodine
- PVP-I
- Iodopovidone
- Polyvinylpyrrolidone Iodine Complex
Povidone iodine raw material supplier for pharmaceutical, veterinary, aquaculture, cleaning and personal-care formulators in Malaysia. Also called PVP iodine, PVP-I, iodopovidone and polyvinylpyrrolidone iodine complex, this page covers bulk brown powder for manufacturing, not finished antiseptic solution, gargle or wound-care packs.
Commercial material is a complex of iodine with polyvinylpyrrolidone, traded as amorphous powder and specified mainly by available iodine content, often around nine to twelve percent on typical market grades. Buyers also state pH of solution, water content, nitrogen content and any USP, EP or BP style monograph request when matching a production specification.
Formulators use the powder in antiseptic solutions, scrubs, ointments, gargles, veterinary teat dips, hatchery disinfectants, institutional surface concentrates and selected personal-care systems. It is distinct from elemental iodine, plain povidone and crospovidone, so those chemicals should not be treated as substitutes.
Send the required powder grade, target available iodine, monograph preference, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation. Supply is subject to applicable requirements.

Common questions about povidone iodine
Is this page selling finished povidone iodine antiseptic solution?
No. This page covers bulk povidone iodine powder as a formulation raw material. Finished antiseptic solutions, scrubs, gargles and wound-care packs are not the product offered here. State the powder grade and available iodine you need for manufacturing.
How does povidone iodine differ from elemental iodine or plain povidone?
Povidone iodine is a complex of iodine with polyvinylpyrrolidone. Elemental iodine is free I2 and has its own catalogue page. Plain povidone is the polymer without bound iodine, and crospovidone is a different crosslinked polymer. Do not substitute these materials for one another.
What does available iodine mean on a povidone iodine enquiry?
Available iodine is the assay buyers use to control strength in the powder and in the finished formula. Commercial powder often falls around nine to twelve percent available iodine, but the exact range must be stated in the enquiry and confirmed against the quoted grade.
Can I request USP, EP or BP grade povidone iodine?
Yes. Name the pharmacopoeial monograph style you need and any related limits for pH of solution, water content or nitrogen. Specific revision compliance and documentation are confirmed with the quotation rather than assumed from a general grade label.
Which industries buy povidone iodine powder as a raw material?
Typical buyers include pharmaceutical and OTC formulators, veterinary and teat-dip manufacturers, aquaculture and hatchery disinfectant makers, institutional cleaning formulators and selected personal-care producers. Describe the end use so the grade discussion stays practical.
What details are needed for a povidone iodine price enquiry?
Provide powder grade or monograph preference, target available iodine, quantity, delivery location and any packing or document needs. Mention whether the use is pharmaceutical, veterinary, aquaculture, cleaning or personal care so the quotation can address the full requirement.
